Shadow and Light
Shadowy darkness garbed the one
Pain and sorrow his fun,
Broken hearts and shattered dreams his thread,
torture and cruelty his bread,
Brilliant light draped the other,
truth son and right his daughter,
new hope and perseverance his life,
honor and justice his fife,
his darkness spread across the land,
the blight led by a subtle hand,
anathema to his brothers kind
his brothers death to find
his light parted the night,
his presence threw back the blight,
and searching he saw,
where his brothers evil lay raw,
Honor and justice feed the blaze
His burning, defiant gaze, which seems to pierce the haze,
At this he loosed a smirk, full of scorn and wit,
And so in battle they met,
One the worlds hope,
Letting it continue its steady lope,
The other its doom
Starting the war drums rythmic boom,
One as light,
The other as night,
These the brothers,
Whom hate each other,
Dark and light,
clash in the twilight,
dancing their last deadly dance,
prevailing by luck, skill, or simple chance,
Swords shattered,
armor battered,
Shields broken,
all left to them their token,
Daggers to each others throat,
drunk with fear and anger,
only tension to make them sober,
the dark one laughed and it was over,
with silent cries,
and the face a man can only make when he dies,
there in the gloom the brothers,
fell before each other,
such was the end of the knights of black and white
of wrong and right, of shadow and light...
